Bronte I College probably has the bright est students in Oakville â€" maybe in Halton â€" or even Canada. Let‘s take Romano Liew as an example. He‘s a 20â€"yearâ€"old from Malaysia who graduated from Bronte College in April. He is spending this summer studying economics at McMaster University before embarking on a full four year degree course in the subject starting in the fall. With a mark of 82%. he considers himself an "averâ€" age" student. But then, students with marks in the 80s and 905 are the norm at this Oakville school. Bronte College‘s prinâ€" cipal, Jim Forrester, picks them for their EVENING SEPT. 13th 6:30 p.m. â€" 9;38 p.m. 4 WEEKS While you shop for "BACK TO SCHOOL BARGAINS", jaguar, cougar, tiger, lion or pet a variety of farmyard animals at the Tiger Paw Exotics & Petting Zoo. vour kids can visit a V/A «9 «. proven academic achievements and their motivation to learn. Students are bright when they arrive and brighter still when they leave. It‘s proven by the fact so proudly pointed out by Forrester that every student entering its doors has graduated and that every graduate of the college has been accepted into a college or university. "Of our students, 25% of them get university scholarships and they do extremely well in university," he declared. We get good kids whose par ents can afford to give them an educaâ€" tion." The parents waiting for their sons and daughters to finish their educations in Canada are waiting in such countries as Malaysia, Thailand, Hong Kong and East Africa. In all, 13 countries are repâ€" resented at the college, said Forrester. These parents have paid an average of $4,500 for tuition ($750 a credit) and have deposited $10,000 with the Canadian government for the privilege of a Canadian education for their chilâ€" dren. When room and board in the community is taken into account, Forrester said the privilege would probâ€" ably cost them much more than $10,000. Even then, it‘s about half the price they would pay if their children were enrolled in the public sector. "Halton or Hamiltonâ€"Wentworth (school boards) charge about $9,000 for foreign students," he said. Parents in other countries (13 counâ€" tries are represented at the College) send their children here for many reaâ€" sons â€" in some cases, to avoid an interruption in their children‘s educaâ€" tion by an army draft or to circumvent politics in their own countries.

"And in East Africa, universities are closed a lot," he explained. Once enrolled in Bronte College, coâ€"educational students take Grade 12 and OAC (Ontario Academic Credits) courses and are groomed for university 1 entrance. In two semesters (seven or _ eight months) they can earn six OACs, â€" designed by the Ontario Ministry of Education, for their Ontario Secondary School Diploma. English as a Second Language is emphasized since students must pass a Test of English as a Foreign Language (Toefl) to enter university. So far, none have failed. This could be due in part to constant exposure to the quirks of the English language as evidenced by a Toefl bulâ€" letin board in the hall of the school. On it are posted explanations of such idiomatic phrases as "to get or give a runaround, pulling someone‘s leg, wet blanket, tongue in cheek" and so on. Some students already have a good command of English when they arrive. Jeff Teh, an 18â€"yearâ€"old from Kuala Lumpur, said he and his friends socialâ€" ized in English in Malaysia, even though he spoke Malay the rest of the time. Teh has been accepted into a Bachelor of Arts course at York University and may apply for Canadian citizenship after his mandatory stay of one year at home. Last Friday, Teh was one of 80 College students participating in this year‘s graduation ceremonies; Liew was the Master of Ceremonies.
